Dunkin’ and Kahlúa team up for a nighttime drink!
August 5th, 2025 under Dunkin', Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

In the mornings, we desire Dunkin’ coffee. However, they don’t have anything for us to drink at night. Well, that had changed because the donut shop teamed up with Kahlúa for a drink that is for adults only!

Kahlúa Dunkin’ Caramel Swirl Cream Liqueur is a rich, velvety, creamy liqueur that perfectly blends Dunkin’s iconic caramel swirl flavor with real cream, 100% Arabica coffee from Veracruz, and a generous splash of premium rum. Resulting in a balanced taste sensation that’s Dunkin’ delicious.

“This collaboration blends premium indulgence with everyday coffee culture,” said Brian Gilbert, Vice President, Retail Business Development, Dunkin’. “Kahlúa Dunkin’ Caramel Swirl is a bold step in the cream liqueur category for both brands and a delicious new treat for coffee and cocktail enthusiasts alike.”

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait to make a White Russian with the liqueur and dunk some Dunkin’ Munchkins Donut Holes into it. Doesn’t that sound like the perfect after-dinner dessert?

If this news is not sweet enough, here is some more…this flavor is not going anywhere because it is part of Kahlúa’s permanent line.

When will your favorite NBC shows be back?

NBC announced today when their shows will debut for the Fall schedule, and they made one huge change.

The Hunting Party, which was supposed to air on Thursdays at 10p, is being held until the midseason. Instead, Law & Order: Organized Crime, which moved to Peacock, is returning to NBC on Thursday nights, with repeats that originally aired on the streamer. Therefore, giving Dick Wolf two nights of broadcasting: One Chicago Wednesdays and Law & Order Thursdays.

The network is also doubling up on comedies. St. Denis Medical and Happy Place will air two episodes on their respective days, Mondays and Fridays. I am not sure if that is a good plan or not. What do you think?

What I do think is that NBC has the advantage over ABC and Fox because they are airing more scripted programming than the other two.

8-10 p.m. – The Voice (Monday)

Sabrina Carpenter and Dunkin’ team up for an Espresso drink!

File this under, I can’t believe someone did not think of this earlier.

Back in April, Sabrina Carpenter released her chart-topping single, Espresso, that became the song of the summer. So, you would think one of the coffee or donut shops would have released a coffee drink with her before now. But they didn’t.

Dunkin’ announced today that they teamed up with the singer for a drink! The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is freshly hand-shaken behind the counter in a dedicated espresso shaker. The drink brings bold espresso, creamy oat milk, and brown sugar notes in a smooth, frothy sip, ready to energize guests’ daily routine in the new year.

“When we first dreamed up Sabrina’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso at Dunkin’, it had to be more than another delicious drink on the menu — we wanted to bring some levity to guests’ everyday coffee order,” said Jill McVicar Nelson, Chief Marketing Officer at Dunkin’. “Working with one of America’s most beloved pop stars, Sabrina Carpenter, adds a spirited, fresh energy that perfectly aligns with Dunkin’s love of bold taste and good-natured fun. Through our new ad campaign, we’re showing guests that their new drink order can be both delicious and a wink at embracing life’s lighter side — exactly what Dunkin’ is all about.”

I betcha that Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, and Krispy Kreme are kicking themselves for not thinking of this earlier.

The Sabrina Carpenter’s Brown Sugar Shakin’ Espresso is available to order starting tomorrow.

The Dunkings really got their own drink
February 12th, 2024 under Ben Affleck, Dunkin', Fast Food, Matt Damon. [ Comments: none ]

Remember yesterday when Ben Affleck told Matt Damon that they were getting a drink named after them at Dunkin’ Donuts? Well, he wasn’t lying.

Today, the donut shop introduced two menu items in honor of the Oscar-winners’ band that will be available for a limited time starting today.

  • The DunKings Iced Coffee: Ben’s go-to order, and his first-ever official coffee order on the Dunkin’ menu, this drink features classic iced coffee with notes of vanilla combined with cream, topped with Sweet Cold Foam and a dusting of cinnamon sugar.
  • The DunKings MUNCHKINS® Skewers: Three assorted MUNCHKINS® conveniently placed on a skewer. This treat can be added to any beverage – especially The DunKings Iced Coffee –  or simply enjoyed on the go.

If that isn’t exciting enough for you, then I have something else that will make you happy. You can dress like the Dunkings for just $140. Buy their outfits at ShopDunkin.

Ice Spice gets her own drink at Dunkin’
September 15th, 2023 under Dunkin', Fast Food. [ Comments: none ]

Ice Spice has made it. Dunkin’ reached out to her and asked if she wanted a drink named after her.

Actually, they didn’t ask her. Ben Affleck did. And he didn’t listen to what she was saying.

“Pumpkin spice season has gotten a bit predictable lately, so we sought help from our friends Ben Affleck and Ice Spice to create a new pumpkin obsession that only Dunkin’ can offer,” said Jill McVicar Nelson, Chief Marketing Officer at Dunkin’. “The result? The collaboration you never knew you needed: Pumpkin Munchkins and Frozen Dunkin’ Coffee, blended together to create the Ice Spice MUNCHKINS® Drink. It’s fun, it’s delicious and it’s not your ordinary pumpkin drink!”

The Ice Spice MUNCHKINS® Drink blends Dunkin’s smooth, creamy Frozen Coffee with Pumpkin MUNCHKINS® Donut Hole Treats, topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. Think of it like Boba tea but with Munchkins.

Does it sound good to you? Then get it while you can.

And now, let’s talk about how Affleck sounded to the singer. He is married to a woman from The Bronx; you would think he would know how to speak to one. But he doesn’t. J-Lo needs to do better.
